HOW CAN WE Know WE\'LL GO TO Heaven? A recent poll indicated that for every American who believes he or she is going to hell, there are 120 who believe they\'re going to heaven.
Jesus died on the cross as the only one worthy to pay the penalty for our sins demanded by the holiness of God: For our sake he God] made him Jesus] to be sin who knew no.
He came to identify with us in our humanity and our weakness, but he did so without being tainted by our sin, self-deception, and moral failings (Hebrews 4:15-16).
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, loved us so much that he left the riches of heaven to become a man and deliver us from our sin.
Sin has terrible consequences, but God has provided a solution: For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23).
Sin separates us from a relationship with God (Isaiah 59:2) and it deceives us and makes us think that wrong is right and right is wrong (Proverbs 14:12).
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23).
And all of us, like Adam and Eve, are sinners.
Sin is what ended paradise in the Garden of Eden.
Do you? To sin means to fall short of God\'s holy standards.
We can Know for sure that we\'ll go to heaven when we die.
Can we really Know in advance where we\'ll go? John, one of the writers of the Bible, said this: I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may Know that you have eternal life (1 John 5:13).
Jesus took upon himself, on the cross, the hell we deserve so that we could experience for eternity the heaven we don\'t deserve THE ONLY TWO OPTIONS There are two possible destinations when we die: heaven or hell.
But once that\'s straight in our minds we\'re ready to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.
That\'s the bad news.
Unless our sin problem is solved once and for all, we can\'t enter heaven.
In fact, hell--not heaven--is our default destination.
The truth is that according to the Bible we don\'t automatically go to heaven.
For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few (Matthew 7:13-14).
For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.
This optimism stands in stark contrast to Jesus Christ\'s words written in the Bible: Enter by the narrow gate.
